FACT CHECK: Remulla repeats ICC jurisdiction, complementarity principle claims lacking context
This is the fourth time Remulla skipped context regarding the jurisdiction of the ICC.
This is the fourth time Remulla skipped context regarding the jurisdiction of the ICC.
Ang imbestigasyon ng ICC ay nasa paunang yugto ng pagsisiyasat at wala pang suspek na sinampahan ng kaso. Bagama't pinangalanan sina Dela Rosa at Duterte sa hiling noong 2021 ni dating ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda na maglunsad ng imbestigasyon, wala pang kinikilalang mga kakasuhan ang Office of the Prosecutor sakaling magsampa ng kaso.
Contrary to the report of Inquirer.net, the ICC probe is still in the preliminary investigation stage and no Filipino official has yet been charged.
By blocking the ICC probe through their legislative influence, aren't they putting the judicial system and Duterte's innocence in serious doubt? Therefore, the ICC probe becomes necessary.
Sa ilang pagkakataon mula noong 2016, may isang beses kahit paano sa isang taon na gumawa si Duterte ng mga pampublikong pahayag na nagpapahintulot sa mga alagad ng batas na pumatay ng mga suspek sa droga, partikular iyong mga pumapalag kapag inaaresto at lumalaban.
Former president Rodrigo Duterte made public statements ordering the killing of drug suspects at least once every year since 2016.
The ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I noted that the investigation of the drug war done by the Philippine government covered only “low-ranking” police officers and failed to probe into the systemic nature of the crimes or identify the “most responsible” officials.
Nilinaw ng ICC na hindi nito nilayon na palitan ang mga lokal na korte dahil inuusig lamang nito ang mga kaso kapag ang mga estado ay napatunayang ayaw o walang kakayahan na gawin ito.
Marcos is the latest and the highest public official who put into question ICC’s jurisdiction to investigate the drug-related killings under the Duterte administration.
May hurisdiksyon ang ICC sa mga krimen na naganap sa Pilipinas sa panahon ng pagiging miyembro nito mula Nob. 1, 2011 hanggang Marso 16, 2019, batay sa Article 127, paragraph 2 ng Rome Statute, ang founding treaty ng ICC.
